Answer:

Time in hours

\frac{543}{60} \\9.05

Explanation:

Given

Decimal reduction time for endospores of Bacillus cereus in milk  = 36.2 minutes

Temperature at which bacillus endospores are reduced = 95°C

Population of endospores to be reduced = 1015

Targeted population of endospores = 1

So the total time taken to reduce population of 1015 endospores to 1 endospore is equal to

36.2 * 15\\= 543 minutes

Time in hours

\frac{543}{60} \\9.05

Which of the following is the largest particle in soil? A-clay B-sand C-silt D-humus
Akimi4 [234]

Well the soil classification is usually done on the basis of particle sizes and composition of soil.

<span>Clay </span>usually consists of particles less than 0.075 mm in size. It is a sticky soil and shows great changes in volume with variation in its water contact. It also shows considerable strength when air dried.

<span>Silt </span>has larger particles than clay and are mainly inorganic in nature. The particle size is less than 0.075mm and exhibits slightly plastic or non plastic behaviour.

Humus is soil consisting of dead and decaying organic matter. It is mainly organic in content but some inorganic particles may be mixed in it. The top soil in a tropical forest may be considered as humus.
